Hey -
This post will be short and sweet because I am tired. Today was a rough day, though going to church this morning and saying some extra prayers really seemed to help. Singing some songs of praise reminded me again of how blessed I truly am.
I liked one particular part of a song we sang today. It said 'Jesus, I love you. And all of my hope is in you."
That's pretty much how I feel. Today was one of those days where everything felt completely out of my hands --- Dad was in some pain today and that was hard for me to watch again today. They lowered his pain med and sedation and he wasn't comfortable. I know the Lord has him in His hands though... the things the doctors can't fix...He can.
That's all I can hope for and count on right now. I am clinging to the hope that he really isn't in pain, that he isn't suffering.
My Dad is a fighter and a strong man, and I know that God won't give him or any of us anything we can't handle. I keep reminding myself of that.
His surgery is scheduled still for tomorrow--- pending on his WBC count and other results...
sorry I don't have a whole lot more answers or details today. We are kind of playing the waiting game again.
I love you all. Thank you all. Sheryl came up here today and really lifted our spirits and spoke some encouraging words. You know, you can sometimes see God just shining through people and in her positive nature and just lifting spirit... gives you the push you need to make through another day, to not give up, a reason to keep on hoping and praying and pushing through it all.
I will write as soon as I know anything tomorrow if the surgery is on or off. Be patient and I love you guys. Keep those pictures coming into my email box for the photo book please! megbradley@gmail.com
Love Meg

Megan, you are too sweet. Thank you for your kind words! I told Mark in my card that I would share my "hope" testimony with him when he got better, but maybe I'm meant to share it with you as well. Maybe the next time I come, we can talk. I loved coming today to spend time with you and your mom and seeing Mark. I really feel like he's going to pull through this, and your whole family will have gotten stronger and closer because of it. It will draw others to the Lord in the end. The Word says we all have a purpose and that God can turn evil for good, so we can believe that there is purpose in this tradegy, and although we may never see who it blesses, someone (and/or many) will be changed because of it. And if that's all we can cling to now, than so be it. God is so faithful and good, we can't even begin to imagine all He's capable of. Stay strong and keep that praise up. It will help lift you out of the valley, like the one you were in today. Please know that we're not only praying for your dad's healing, but for your whole family as well. Love, Sheryl
